[00:28] <daurnimator> uh
[00:28] <daurnimator> to america?
[00:28] <daurnimator> nerochiaro: you know where joe is homeing to?
[02:21] <nerochiaro> daurnimator: don't know

[11:21] <chreekat> This is strange.. when I highlight a block of text in xterm that has Swedish letters, they disappear when I paste the block elsewhere
[11:22] <chreekat> But I *can* copy the letters... just one at a time
[11:23] <chreekat> Not that this is the place to go looking for help with that. :-P
[11:27] <chreekat> Locale and language stuff is mysterious to me. I need to sit down and figure it out
[11:30] <eigma> /j #linuxhelp /
[11:30] <eigma> * ?
[12:09] <hatman> hi all,
[12:10] <hatman> i saw on the web that you were speaking about RAID here... Am i in the right place to speak about RAID problems ?
[13:34] <nerochiaro> crweb: hey, you around ?
[13:38] <theolodian> How long is the upgrade to .63 supposed to take? It has been on root.cramfs for about 5 minutes.
[13:39] <nerochiaro> theolodian: be patient
[13:39] <nerochiaro> over 10 start to worry
[13:39] <theolodian> I was just getting worried, don't remember it taking this long before.
[13:40] <nerochiaro> it has 3.5 extra megabytes of cruft
[13:40] <theolodian> ah, there it goes!
[13:40] <nerochiaro> that's why it's taking more
[13:40] * theolodian  makes a big sigh of relief!
[13:41] <theolodian> I remember you guys talking about that.
[13:41] <Milesy2> what distro does the osd use?
[13:41] <Milesy2> is it built on any particular?
[13:41] <nerochiaro> Milesy2: none
[13:41] <Milesy2> custom then?
[13:42] <nerochiaro> yep, it comes from the board vendor
[13:44] <Milesy2> what kernel ?
[13:44] <theolodian> should OSD menu be green or orange? Says I am using the wrong video format.
[13:44] <nerochiaro> theolodian: orange-y
[13:44] <nerochiaro> Milesy2: Linux neuros 2.6.15 #1 PREEMPT Fri Feb 2 11:41:24 CET 2007 armv5tejl unknow
[13:45] <theolodian> nero: Thanks. That's what I thought, but when I change it a pop-up says that I am choosing the wrong format compared to the video input.
[13:49] <theolodian> OK, how do I set path for where it records to?
[13:49] <nerochiaro> somewhere in options, i think
[13:49] <nerochiaro> er, settings menu
[13:50] <theolodian> I have a 'Save As' popup, but can't select anything?
[13:51] <nerochiaro> you need to select the custom type of recording
[13:52] <nerochiaro> no, does anyone have 0.63 loaded ?
[13:52] <theolodian> All I see is 'Default Recording' under settings?
[13:52] <nerochiaro> theolodian: no, it's straight in the recording screen, off of the main menu
[13:52] <nerochiaro> sorry did you the wrong direction
[13:52] <nerochiaro> before
[13:54] <theolodian> actually, seems to access same settings
[13:55] <theolodian> worked this time. keypad thing threw me off before. If you just hit enter, then it lets you hit OK to exit the pop-up window. Otherwise you get in a loop where you can't get out except using the back button on the remote.
[13:56] <nerochiaro> nasty. please report that with steps to reproduce
[13:56] <nerochiaro> are you on 0.63 ?
[13:57] <theolodian> yeah, just put it in
[13:58] <theolodian> recording is MUCH better. Works with PAL too.
[13:59] <theolodian> haven't done bugzilla b4
[13:59] <nerochiaro> shound't be hard
[14:01] <theolodian> weird, won't do it now. Not sure how it happened.
[14:02] <nerochiaro> anyone knows how would i switch among terminals inside crweb's vm image ?
[14:02] <nerochiaro> on ubuntu generally it's CTRL+ALT+N
[14:03] <nerochiaro> but CTRL+ALT toggles focus to the vm
[14:45] <Milesy2> why cant I modify the PATH variable on a shell ?
[14:46] <nerochiaro> you should be able to. what do you do ?
[14:47] <Milesy2> PATH=$PATH:/mnt/OSD/test
[14:47] <Milesy2> export PATH
[14:48] <nerochiaro> works for me
[14:53] <Milesy2> not working:/
[14:54] <nerochiaro> if you echo $PATH the new path is not there ?
[14:56] <Milesy2> nope
[14:56] <Milesy2> it works If I do it from the shell manually
[14:57] <Milesy2> but not fro a script
[14:58] <nerochiaro> not sure if export should work from inside a script, but then again my bash-fu is very low
[15:01] <crweb> nerochiaro: its just alt-f*
[15:01] <crweb> nerochiaro: or, alt arrow key
[15:01] <crweb> ctrl is only used to leave X
[15:02] <nerochiaro> crweb: cool
[15:03] <nerochiaro> crweb: there are no developement headers in your packages, right ? (for cooler, i mean)
[15:03] <nerochiaro> in your vm updates
[15:03] <crweb> correct
[15:03] <crweb> for now
[15:03] <crweb> you would still have to have the libraries
[15:03] <crweb> even if you had the headers
[15:04] <crweb> haven't work out how i'm going to do that yet
[15:04] <crweb> damnit..
[15:04] <crweb> time for a new cpu fan too
[15:04] <nerochiaro> i just make a dir Neuros-Cooler with lib and include under that in sbox home and copied over the files from cooler. took 10 seconds
[15:05] <crweb> btw, i came up with a how to make a clean package
[15:05] <crweb> build your app, then don't make install
[15:05] <crweb> do the sb-menu and clean the target fs
[15:05] <crweb> then go back make install
[15:05] <crweb> walah, empty rootfs with only your files you installed
[15:05] <nerochiaro> unless your package needs something during install phase that you have cleaned up, it works
[15:05] <crweb> everything is still there
[15:06] <crweb> all the commands used aren't in Target/
[15:06] <crweb> they are in the sbox path
[15:06] <nerochiaro> but really, i wouldn't bother. /usr/local/ is all that people need to install to. and that's clean
[15:06] <nerochiaro> let's not get around confusing people
[15:06] <crweb> unless you're building firmware
[15:07] <nerochiaro> you won't do that inside the vm, didn't we estabilish that ?
[15:07] <nerochiaro> it's for user applications
[15:15] <crweb> why couldn't you?
[15:15] <crweb> you have the rootfs, and the uImage
[15:17] <nerochiaro> but the rootfs isn't inside sbox. it's just there to be server via nfs
[15:18] <crweb> doesn't stop you from copying your files to /srv/neuros-osd-rootfs and then making a root.cramfs
[15:19] <crweb> you dont' need svn at all to make a upk/firmware
[15:19] <crweb> that was the whole point
[15:19] <crweb> you have everything svn produces. you can use it however
[15:21] <nerochiaro> my point is that there's little software that makes sense to build outside /usr/local/, for the OSD
[15:22] <nerochiaro> of course you can build whatever you want, i'm not arguing against that
[15:23] <nerochiaro> i was just saying that for most people the full sbox reset might not be necessary
[15:28] <crweb> its going to be useful for making packages
[15:28] <crweb> not compiling programs, but actual packaging.
[15:29] <nerochiaro> yes, but only if you install in a place different that /usr/local/
[15:29] <chreekat> Milesy2: If you want a variable defined in a script to exist on the shell after you run the script, you have to *source* the script
[15:29] <chreekat> Milesy2: Well, I only know bash, so ignore me if you are using something other than bash
[15:29] <crweb> nerochiaro: package manager will have to always assume its files are going to /usr/local then
[15:30] <crweb> which isn't always the case
[15:30] <crweb> sure, we could force it to always be /usr/local
[15:30] <nerochiaro> well, depends on package manager, but i get your point
[15:30] <nerochiaro> a clean tree is clean
[15:30] <crweb> i'm writing one
[15:31] <nerochiaro> cool :)
[15:31] <nerochiaro> ah, after the sbox reset, do you need to reinstall stuff, right ?
[15:31] <nerochiaro> at least i did have to on mine
[15:32] <crweb> right
[15:32] <crweb> you make install
[15:32] <crweb> then tar it up
[15:32] <crweb> then reset again
[15:32] <crweb> then re-inistall /etc/ rootfs etc
[15:33] <nerochiaro> it would be better to provide a reset+reinstall script then
[15:33] <nerochiaro> otherwise you need to rember each time what you need to reinstall
[15:33] <crweb> its in the sb-menu
[15:33] <nerochiaro> that's my point, it's boring using sb-menu
[15:34] <nerochiaro> you just reset and reinstall with a command
[15:34] <nerochiaro> not 10 clicks
[15:34] <nerochiaro> check sb-config cmd line interface to sb-menu
[15:34] <crweb> bleh..
[15:34] <crweb> heh
[15:35] <crweb> I was trying to not learn how to use sbox
[15:35] <nerochiaro> i'm trying to help you here ;) if you can just tell people "run reinstall.sh" instead of explaining them every time what commands they need to do in sb-menu, you will save lots of time
[15:36] <nerochiaro> streamline is the keyword here
[15:36] * crweb  caves
[15:36] * nerochiaro  awards +1 to crweb for caving in
[15:37] <crweb> damn points...
[15:38] <nerochiaro> that's your own idea after all
[15:38] <crweb> heh
[15:39] <crweb> here, i have some of my more serious sketchwork
[15:41] <nerochiaro> artistry or design sketches ?
[15:41] <crweb> both
[15:42] <nerochiaro> cool, didn't know you also did art drawing
[15:42] <crweb> yeah, actually I oil paint
[15:42] <crweb> scanner isn't quite large enough for that
[15:42] <crweb> i need a digital camera bad..
[15:43] <nerochiaro> which subjects ?
[15:43] <crweb> ?
[15:43] <nerochiaro> which are the subjects of your paintings ?
[15:43] <crweb> my stuff is pretty abstract
[15:45] <crweb> www.limesg.com
[15:45] <crweb> www.limesg.com
[15:46] <nerochiaro> 404 on the second
[15:46] <nerochiaro> er 403
[15:46] <crweb> huh
[15:46] <crweb> dunno why it did that
[15:46] <crweb> try again
[15:47] <crweb> thats on my Toshiba Tecra M4 S435 tablet :)
[15:47] <nerochiaro> wow, not bad at all
[15:47] <nerochiaro> simple but effective
[15:47] <crweb> i've got a rose here too thats nice
[15:47] <crweb> can't find it though
[15:48] <crweb> hah, still on the tablet
[15:48] <GuestN024> crweb: nice painting..
[15:50] <crweb> www.limesg.com
[15:50] <crweb> crap, its not doen
[15:50] <crweb> ok, now it is
[15:51] <crweb> thats the insert under the cd in my album jewel case
[15:52] <crweb> www.limesg.com
[15:52] <nerochiaro> not really good
[15:52] <crweb> back cover
[15:52] <nerochiaro> the insert
[15:52] <crweb> its not really visable
[15:52] <nerochiaro> still looks pretty cheap
[15:52] <crweb> the alpha is very very lwo
[15:53] <crweb> you can barely make it out
[15:53] <nerochiaro> the cover is 403 too
[15:53] <crweb> oh wait
[15:53] <crweb> neat-tom didn't go
[15:53] <crweb> we switched to the geometric art, i forgot
[15:54] <nerochiaro> who's on the cover ?
[15:54] <crweb> me
[15:54] <nerochiaro> wow, that's completely different than the other picture
[15:55] <crweb> www.limesg.com
[15:55] <crweb> is the inserts and album arts
[15:55] <crweb> its that bar, allong the left most sides, then black
[15:56] <crweb> I'd have to actually open the plastic on one of these to see what they look like
[15:57] <crweb> i can't remember which I used
[15:57] <crweb> they go on sale feb 13th
[15:57] <nerochiaro> good luck with that
[15:58] <crweb> its just for fun :)
[15:58] <crweb> and to show up my old band mates
[15:58] <nerochiaro> since when luck hurts in anything ;)
[15:58] <crweb> hah
[15:58] <crweb> don't want to much luck
[15:59] <nerochiaro> pfff
[15:59] <crweb> already did the fame thing, didn't like it
[15:59] <crweb> i still get people stopping me at gas stations and stuff saying "your that guy that played in that band"
[16:00] <crweb> can be 200-300 miles from home
[16:00] <nerochiaro> does that annoy you ?
[16:00] <crweb> yeah a little bit
[16:01] <crweb> heh
[16:01] <nerochiaro> won't take long for them to forget
[16:02] <crweb> its been 3 years
[16:02] <crweb> its not quite so common now days, but I get those stares from people and they are like "where do i know him from"
[16:02] <crweb> of course, i give them too
[16:02] <nerochiaro> it's pretty natural
[16:03] <crweb> I play solo for the first time at a coffee house feb 13th
[16:03] <crweb> thats going to be fun :)
[16:04] <nerochiaro> get someone to tape and youtube it
[16:04] <nerochiaro> so we can have crweb on our OSDs even more than we have now
[16:04] <nerochiaro> ;)
[16:06] <chreekat> hehe
[16:06] <Milesy2> I have concluded that I am going to through this crap NAS box in the bin!
[16:07] <Milesy2> Going to setup a nano-itx machine with Linux booting off a SD card as a file server!
[16:07] <Milesy2> nice, small, quiet, and low power!
[16:08] <Milesy2> Just upgraded firmware! my avi files are not jumping as much now
[16:09] <Milesy2> still seems like their are frames being dropped... but its not jumping all over the place!
[16:09] <Milesy2> and the fast forward and rewind work
[16:09] <Milesy2> yay
[16:09] <nerochiaro> what's the maximum path lenght in linux ?
[16:09] <nerochiaro> hmm, nevermind
[16:09] <nerochiaro> stupid question
[16:23] <nerochiaro> can anyone try to attach an usb disk using 0.63 ?
[16:23] <nerochiaro> it's looks broken to me
[16:25] <theolodian> can test an SD card through USB adapter if u want?
[16:26] <nerochiaro> it's ok
[16:26] <nerochiaro> it's still seen as mass storage
[16:26] <nerochiaro> it doesn't get mounted to /media for me
[16:27] <nerochiaro> oh wait, doesn't work with cards either. something else is fishy
[16:27] <theolodian> SD card works through adapter
[16:28] <theolodian> recorded file works fine too
[16:29] <nerochiaro> crweb: i believe it has something to do with that fuct up permissions on the rootfs files we seen yesterday. did you manage to fix that ?
[16:29] <nerochiaro> the take2 version didn't work for me either
[16:30] <theolodian> One other thing, it still leaves the status of the last media that was attached showing after the media is removed.
[16:31] <theolodian> but the status bar itself may be the OSD, just the symbol for the last media?
[16:34] <crweb> nerochiaro: i fixed it here
[16:34] <crweb> nerochiaro: but then like you said when you tried it, it was still fd up
[16:35] <nerochiaro> yes, it is still that way
[16:35] <crweb> i've packaged, repackaged, tar'd with -p
[16:35] <crweb> no matter what, the dates revert, and the permissions are wrong
[16:35] <nerochiaro> but also for you too, i hope
[16:36] <crweb> I haven't tried in the vm, but on my desktop yes
[16:36] <crweb> they are basically the same though
[16:37] <nerochiaro> give it a shot in vm, i'm curious to see if it's just me or what
[16:38] <crweb> well decompress on my desktop does the same
[16:38] <nerochiaro> ah, ok
[16:38] <crweb> i will fix it tonight
[16:38] <crweb> much later
[16:38] <nerochiaro> thanks
[16:38] <nerochiaro> np
[16:39] <nerochiaro> btw, have you used trunk recently ?
[16:39] <crweb> i don't even have a copy
[16:39] <nerochiaro> ok
[16:39] <crweb> all my bash work, i only needed rootfs
[17:25] <theolodian> OK, tried .63. Records quite well on 'fine' setting. Video great on 'superfine', but audio not synced very well.
[17:28] <nerochiaro> theolodian: wasn't there a warning about audio being broken on the fw post ?
[17:29] <theolodian> thought they meant audio files?
[17:30] <theolodian> the superfine was also ASF, and the other was MP4 now that I think about it
[17:30] <nerochiaro> no idea then
[17:32] <theolodian> try superfine MP4 here in a sec
[17:36] <theolodian> audio fine with MP4 on superfine, but video had problems. Line of white dots across the top, frame shifted down slightly, and locked up temporarily at one point.
[17:37] <theolodian> except for locking up, the defects showed up during recording as well
[17:38] <theolodian> worked better on second try
[17:38] <nerochiaro> theolodian: it's all material for the codec guys anyway. either ML or bugzilla is the perfect place to post, i think. if you do take the time to report, thanks in advance
[17:39] <theolodian> must have been some glitch when switching to record mode
[17:40] <theolodian> argh
[17:40] <theolodian> Seems to be a glitch when switching to record mode, like when the menu comes up and everything bounces
[17:41] <theolodian> also, when it finishes playing a file it starts playing the first one in the folder. Strange.
[17:41] <nerochiaro> that's a "featue" i think
[17:42] <nerochiaro> it cycles files when it finishes one
[17:42] <theolodian> ah, I see :)
[17:42] <nerochiaro> i don't like it, but works like that
[17:44] <theolodian> waiting for my bugzilla password . . . .
[17:45] * chreekat  might be waiting eternally for his sourceforge password
[17:45] <chreekat> I signed up with my school address, which I can no longer access
[17:46] <theolodian> whoops!
[17:47] <chreekat> I sent an email to their support, but who knows... "Hi yeah it's me, I lost my password *and* my email address, won't you please give me access to my account?"
[17:47] <chreekat> If that doesn't sound like a scam I don't know what does
[17:47] <nerochiaro> chreekat: tough luck
[17:48] <theolodian> still waiting for bugzilla . . .
[17:48] <nerochiaro> chreekat: maybe if you can get a certification from your school that you were actually the owner of that address...
[17:48] <theolodian> yeah, at the next reunion?
[17:49] <chreekat> It was my university address.. a university with 20,000 students at any one time
[17:49] <theolodian> So only about 500 named chreekat? :P
[17:50] <chreekat> haha
[17:50] <chreekat> chreekat might be unique (so far), but it won't be as simple as finding a friendly sysadmin and asking for 5 minutes of his time
[17:52] <nerochiaro> theolodian: i requested mine and it arrived in a second. check your spam bin
[17:53] <theolodian> it gets automatically deleted
[17:53] <nerochiaro> whitelist it or something
[17:53] <theolodian> what's the address?
[17:56] <nerochiaro> theolodian: send me a pm with a password, i'll set it for you, then you can reset it later
[17:56] <nerochiaro> it's quicker
[17:56] <theolodian> er, how do I pm? I'm on the web IRC.
[17:58] <nerochiaro> nevermind, check you mail
[18:01] <theolodian> cheers, got it
[18:01] <nerochiaro> cool
[18:08] <theolodian> bug 1200, my first bugzilla
[18:12] <daurnimator> hi
[18:13] <theolodian> hola
[18:16] <daurnimator> whats new...a\
[18:16] <nerochiaro> not much
[18:26] <theolodian> later guys
[19:01] <vmarks> hi nerochiaro
[19:01] <nerochiaro> vmarks: hej
[19:02] <nerochiaro> i was just about to go to sleep
[19:03] <vmarks> don't let me stop you.
[19:03] <vmarks> go man go!
[19:17] <daurnimator> don't let me go!
